Red and Orange Geometric Mural on Front Street

This mural is in the heart of DUMBO on Front Street between Adams St and Pearl Street. The Manhattan Bridge runs above it. Reference the GPS coordinate. If you're coming from Manhattan, you can easily walk over to this location by the pedestrian trail on Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges. By Subway: - Closest Station: York Street Subway (F Train)

You can photograph this mural any month of the year.

This location can have tricky lighting with a lot shadows. It really depends on the day, but the morning is the best time to go to get minimal shadows while still allowing light to come through.

It's important to take the photo straight on so that the mural is aligned. I find this perspective more aesthetically pleasing than if the mural was off-center.

Be patient with the light! Wait until the shadows are exactly how you want them and then take your shot.

Experiment with the different props your model can use. You can be edgier and use a skateboard or try something more charming, like an umbrella on a rainy day.

While you're in the neighborhood you must check out the skyline views as well! Some of the best views of Manhattan are from Brooklyn. It shows the city in a whole new perspective!

Walk over the Brooklyn Bridge to Manhattan. It's a fun alternative to taking the busy subway trains.
